Summary: Alex came down to find Luke Castellan sitting at her dinner table. Little did either of them know what effect they would have on each other's lives. A new view on the "characters read the books" idea. WARNING: Flames will be met with sarcasm.

I was coming down to eat dinner with my grandparents when I saw someone I had never seen, but I knew in the back of my mind that I knew him. I never would've believed how well and if anyone would've told me I probably would've said they were crazy. He had sandy blonde hair, beautiful blue eyes, slightly tan skin and he had a very worried look on his face. If he hadn't looked so worried, I imagine he would have had a very cute smile.

"Hey, who's our guest, grandmom?" I said more addressing the teenage; he must have been at least 14, boy that was sitting at our table than my grandmother.

"This is Luke. Your grandfather and I found him hyperventilating by the cornfield. He was saying something like, what was it dear?"

He or Luke now that I knew his name said, "I am traveling with two of what are now my best friends, we are all in danger and now I've lost them. Annabeth is only seven and Thalia will never be able to get there on her own alive and protect Annabeth. I need to find them but I don't know how,"

"Hey I'm Alex; by the way, can I talk to you after dinner Luke? And one more question, 'Is your last name Castellan by any chance?"

"How did you know that?" He asked kind of was it scared look on his face.

"That's what I wanna talk to you about," I said.

"Ok then, I was done anyway." He said, now looking more curious than scared.

I wasn't. I was actually starving, but I was too curious to say so. I mean I could eat later. So I led him into the living room so we could talk privately and my grandparents wouldn't think I was crazy.

"So back to how you know my name," Luke asked me.

"You look exactly like someone I used to read about. I know your name, your dad, who you're looking for, where you're going and why. And that's just the stuff I'm going to tell you." I noticed that he cringed visibly when I talked about his dad, but otherwise he seemed interested.

"Enlighten me." He seemed amused and I could tell he didn't believe me.

"You're name is Luke Castellan. We've established that. You are a demigod and your dad is Hermes. You're looking for your best friends Thalia Grace and Annabeth Chase. Annabeth is 7 and Thalia is 14 just like you. All of you are going to Camp Half-blood and you need to get there or Thalia is going to be killed. Grover the satyr is also traveling with you. He's supposed to be Thalia's protector," I said. By this time, he was stunned.

"Whoa, how did you know all that?" Luke asked.

"You remind me of a character I read about once." I replied.

"That wasn't the question." He said and I could tell he was irritated.

"I need you to come back in 5 years with Thalia and Annabeth so I can explain it all of you. Just head towards where you were going and you'll find them."

"Thank you? If I find them I'll come back. Nice meeting you. Gotta go. Bye." Then he rushed out, partially to find his friends and partially to get away from me. That was the end of my first demigod encounter.
